As...Wow Lisca, your new kitchen is looking amazing! As for your embroidery, it is all simply gorgeous. And I would take issue with anyone who says that cross stitch is not proper embroidery! It's a perfectly respectable stitch with plenty of potential for being creative. I used to do a lot of embroidery and have recently taken it up again and at the moment I'm workin on an ancient UFO (UnFinished Object) which I started at least 25 years ago - a Hebrew alphabet sampler in cross stitch, and I would be very insulted if someone told me it wasn't embroidery lol! I am working on it at our fortnightly KnitterNatter craft group from church. Thanks for your lovely enthusiastic comment - the biscuits went down very well on the unit this afternoon - both chemo-ites and staff all enjoyed them! I had some lovely conversations with several people and it was great to have the opportunity to encourage them, having got through my cancer journey with flying colours. Phoebe in my guitar case has certainly raised a few smiles on WOYWW this week! Unfortunately she's not very musical but knows a good thing when she finds it! My fingers continue to be very sore after only 4 days of practising for about 1/2 hr and today I can see white patches on my fingertips which look suspiciously like blisters... Oh well, no pain, no gain!<br /><br />Happy WOYWW,<br />Shoshi #28Shoshihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00028185699225457125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6549829449802315358.post-80944168073752978372016-03-03T01:05:25.424+01:002016-03-03T01:05:25.424+01:00Such patience Lisca with that embroidery, Gorgeous...Such patience Lisca with that embroidery, Gorgeous!
